In the16th and 17th centuries, the Dutch managed to dominate world trade, and they did all through the pioneering use of corporations and finance. Well, they did also use some traditional methods like violently enforced monopolies, unfair trade agreements, and plain old warfare.

Online fraud remains a major challenge for Latin America merchants. For any organization doing online sales, fraud prevention represents a cost of the business itself. However, if you do not have appropriate processes for preventing it, they can easily soar beyond expectations, both in terms of lost revenue and overheads.

Hello and welcome for another video tour of a fantastic Paris neighborhood by New YorkHabitat ( http://www.nyhabitat.com ). In today's video tour we're going to explore one of the liveliest and most popular areas of Paris, the Latin Quarter.
Also, feel free to watch other great video tours of Paris neighborhoods ( http://www.youtube.com/user/NewYorkHabitat?feature=mhee#p/c/D57FBD5017C49B3B ), such as Oberkampf ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGp3-qXWI6w ) or L'Ile Saint-Louis ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWpOtKAjgX0 ).
There is so much to see in this area, this will be the 1st episode of a three-part series dedicated to the Latin Quarter.
Located on the Left Bank of the Seine River in Paris, where the Roman city of Lutetia once stood, the Latin Quarter stretches from the river to the top of MountSt. Genevieve, a hill named for the city's patron saint.
History
The name Latin Quarter goes back to the Middle Ages, when this was the haunt of students and their teachers. The university started as a school attached to the cathedral. Teaching took place outdoors, under the arcades of the cathedral cloisters. In the12th century, many people moved to the Left Bank, and soon after, colleges were founded, including the Sorbonne, which began in 1257.
So, why is it called the Latin Quarter? Well, it comes from the fact that Latin was spoken here, not only in the universities and colleges which taught in Latin until the 1700s, but also in the streets. In the early days, students flocked here from all over the world and they communicated in Latin here, in the area where they lived and studied.
The Latin Quarter is still the haunt of students. But many others come to stroll through its tiny streets, eat in its restaurants, people-watch and enjoy the cinemas and jazz clubs.
Saint-Michel
The Saint-Michel fountain is a popular meeting place amongst everyone in this area of Paris. Stretching out in front of the fountain is one of the boulevards constructed by Haussmann in the 1860s as part of Napoleon III's project to rebuild Paris. This is the boulevard Saint-Michel. The fountain with Saint Michael killing the dragon was designed to give a beautiful finish to the boulevard.
Tiny streets of the Latin Quarter (Rue de la Harpe/Rue de la Huchette/Rue Xavier Privas)
Across the street and around the corner, you'll find a taste of the old Latin Quarter. This area still has its narrow medieval streets, identifiable by the gutter running down the middle of the street. Once filled with medieval students and teachers, craftsmen, merchants, and knights of the royal guard, these streets are as bustling as ever. They are now home to many picturesque multi-ethnic restaurants.
Latin Quarter ApartmentsIt's difficult to enjoy your morning coffee and a vintage book from the Latin Quarter in a boring hotel room. For an authentic Latin Quarter experience, make sure you book a furnished apartment in the Latin Quarter or a Latin Quarter vacation rental for your next trip.
Take a look at this furnished studio apartment located in the 6th arrondissement of Paris ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/22 ), which is also equipped with a washing machine and of course a fully equipped kitchen. With nice views and a lot of light, this apartment is a perfect place to call home during your time in Paris, located just off of Boulevard Saint-Michel.
Finally we might suggest this furnished 2-bedroom, 1 and half bathroom Paris apartment ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/1759 ), which is situated on the 5th floor of a 7-story elevator building. One bedroom is furnished with a double bed and one with a single bed. The living room is furnished with a double sized sofa bed for extra sleeping accommodations. The rental also includes a dining area, as well as a balcony, perfect for a satisfying stay in the Latin Quarter of Paris.
Remember that New York Habitat offers hundreds of apartments for rent in Paris, including furnished apartments ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished ) and vacation rentals ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/vacation ).
Also, be sure to check out our blog, if you want to learn more about Latin Quarter : http://www.nyhabitat.com/blog/2011/09/22/paris-neighborhood-video-tour-latin-quarter-part-1/
We have covered a lot of ground today in the Latin Quarter here in Paris. If we missed any of your favorite spots, be sure to share them in the comments section below.
We hope to see you soon in the Latin Quarter. As they say in Latin, bonum cursum, or in French, bon voyage!

Latin America

Latin America is the group of territories and countries in the Americas where Romance languages are spoken. The term originated in 19th century France to include French-speaking territories in the Americas within the larger group of countries that speak Spanish and Portuguese. It is therefore marginally broader than the term Iberian America or Spanish America, though it excludes French-speaking Quebec. Latin America consists of twenty sovereign states and several territories and dependencies which cover an area that stretches from the southern border of the United States to the southern tip of South America, including the Caribbean. It has an area of approximately 19,197,000km2 (7,412,000sq mi), almost 13% of the earth's land surface area.

As of 2015, its population was estimated at more than 626 million and in 2014, Latin America had a combined nominal GDP of 5,573,397 million USD and a GDP PPP of 7,531,585 million USD. The term "Latin America" was first used in 1861 in La revue des races Latines, a magazine "dedicated to the cause of Pan-Latinism".

World history

World history, global history or transnational history (not to be confused with diplomatic or international history) is a field of historical study that emerged as a distinct academic field in the 1980s. It examines history from a global perspective. It is not to be confused with comparative history, which, like world history, deals with the history of multiple cultures on a global scale.
World historians use a thematic approach, with two major focal points: integration (how processes of world history have drawn people of the world together) and difference (how patterns of world history reveal the diversity of the human experiences).

History

Pre-modern

The study of world history, as distinct from national history, has existed in many world cultures. However, early forms of world history were not truly global, and were limited to only the regions known by the historian.

In Ancient China, Chinese world history, that of China and the surrounding people of East Asia, was based on the dynastic cycle articulated by Sima Qian in circa 100 BC. Sima Qian's model is based on the Mandate of Heaven. Rulers rise when they united China, then are overthrown when a ruling dynasty became corrupt. Each new dynasty begins virtuous and strong, but then decays, provoking the transfer of Heaven's mandate to a new ruler. The test of virtue in a new dynasty is success in being obeyed by China and neighboring barbarians. After 2000 years Sima Qian's model still dominates scholarship, although the dynastic cycle is no longer used for modern Chinese history.

Crash Course

Plot

Crash Course centers on a group of high schoolers in a driver’s education class; many for the second or third time. The recently divorced teacher, super-passive Larry Pearl, is on thin ice with the football fanatic principal, Principal Paulson, who is being pressured by the district superintendent to raise driver’s education completion rates or lose his coveted football program. With this in mind, Principal Paulson and his assistant, with a secret desire for his job, Abner Frasier, hire an outside driver’s education instructor with a very tough reputation, Edna Savage, aka E.W. Savage, who quickly takes control of the class.

The plot focuses mostly on the students and their interactions with their teachers and each other. In the beginning, Rico is the loner with just a few friends, Chadley is the bookish nerd with few friends who longs to be cool and also longs to be a part of Vanessa’s life who is the young, friendly and attractive girl who had to fake her mother’s signature on her driver’s education permission slip. Kichi is the hip-hop Asian kid who often raps what he has to say and constantly flirts with Maria, the rich foreign girl who thinks that the right-of-way on the roadways always goes to (insert awesomely fake foreign Latino accent) “my father’s limo”. Finally you have stereotypical football meathead J.J., who needs to pass his English exam to keep his eligibility and constantly asks out and gets rejected by Alice, the tomboy whose father owns “Santini & Son” Concrete Company. Alice is portrayed as being the “son” her father wanted.

HIDDEN Symbol Meanings You Didn't Know

From that famous bumper sticker to hashtags on Instagram, here are the histories behind some of the most famous, everyday icons!
Subscribe to Talltanic http://goo.gl/wgfvrr
# 10 Coexist
The bumper sticker on the back of your Subaru was initially supposed to promote understanding and peace between different cultures, but it has a pretty choppy history. It was initially designed by Piotr Mlodozeniec for an art show in a contemporary art museum in Jerusalem, at that point it only had an oversized Crescent moon for the C, aStar of David for the X and a Latin Cross for the T. This image would be co-opted by two different clothing companies and even by U2. There would be some messy lawsuits and lots of confusion about who owned the image, before we landed at the finale version of Coexist that you see so commonly as a bumper sticker.
# 9 Power
This is pretty much the universal symbol for turning something on or off. It originally comes from the early days of computers when everything was mostly coded in 0’s and 1’s. 0 meant “off” and 1 meant “on”. This was quickly adopted as a symbol as it transcends language. Now, you can still see a 0 and 1 denote what power state something is in. You might also see the broken 0 with a 1 in it which means “standby power state” or works as a toggle between off and on.
# 8 Barber’s Pole
The iconic symbol used to denote a barbershop is the red and white striped pole that is usually right outside. These stripes actually have a pretty surprising origin. The red stripes symbolized blood and the white stripes symbolized bandages. This is because Barbers used to do minor surgery as well as give haircuts. They would let blood or use leeches to “clean” ill patients’ blood.
# 7 InfiniteSymbol
The infinity symbol looks like an overturned 8 and it’s pretty obvious to see that it also looks like a stroke with no beginning or end. It actually has roots in Roman numerals, the number for 1,000 which looks like two letter C’s facing each other: CƆ. While that only stood for 1,000, it was also used to say “a lot”.
# 6 Ichthys
This symbol is colloquially known as the “Jesus Fish” and you’ve probably seen a version of this symbol on the back of a car while you were driving in traffic. Story goes that when Christians were a persecuted religious group in the Biblical era, a Christian would draw the first half of the symbol in the sand. If someone else was a christian too, they’d draw the other line. The word Ichthys itself is an acronym for the greek words Iēsous Christos, Theou Yios, Sōtēr, which translates to “Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior”. Now, the Ichthys is used commonly in Christian culture.
# 5 Pause
You’re probably familiar with this symbol, the universal symbol for a temporary stop. Some think that it looks like a stop sign with the middle carved out of it. However, the most likely origin is that it came from a classical music origin: the caesura. In musical notation the caesura indicates a “pause”.
# 4 $ Sign
There are a few theories about the origin of the dollar sign but many believe that it is from the old Spanish version of handwritten shorthand for “peso” which is “ps”. Eventually the P and S would be be written on top of each other and then that would become just an S with a line through it, the modern $ sign.
# 3 @ Sign
There are a couple different theories about where the “@ sign” originated. Many believe that it came from scribes in the 1500’s but the exact origin could be from the Latin word for “toward” which is ad. The swirl around the @ could be from the “d”. Others believe that it came from the French for at which is à, an a with a mark above it. For efficiency, scribes might have just turned this letter into the @ sign so they wouldn’t have to pick up the pen. After that, the @ was used by merchants to denote price. It slowly evolved into what we use it for today, which is mainly for internet handles and email addresses.
# 2 USB Symbol
The icon on a USB was drawn to resemble Neptune’s trident. Instead of three prongs at the end of the spear there are three shapes. Each of the different shapes are meant to represent all the different kinds of peripheral devices that could be plugged into the standard USB port.
# 1 AppleCommand Key
If you’re currently using or have ever used an Apple computer, you are probably familiar with the strange button on the keyboard known as the Command key. However, you may not be familiar with where this clover symbol was borrowed from. It is a SwedishRoad sign that indicates cultural locations and places of interest, AKA a Tourist Attraction.

Hello and welcome for another video tour of a fantastic Paris neighborhood by New YorkHabitat ( http://www.nyhabitat.com ). In today's video tour we're going to explore one of the liveliest and most popular areas of Paris, the Latin Quarter.
Also, feel free to watch other great video tours of Paris neighborhoods ( http://www.youtube.com/user/NewYorkHabitat?feature=mhee#p/c/D57FBD5017C49B3B ), such as Oberkampf ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGp3-qXWI6w ) or L'Ile Saint-Louis ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWpOtKAjgX0 ).
There is so much to see in this area, this will be the 1st episode of a three-part series dedicated to the Latin Quarter.
Located on the Left Bank of the Seine River in Paris, where the Roman city of Lutetia once stood, the Latin Quarter stretches from the river to the top of MountSt. Genevieve, a hill named for the city's patron saint.
History
The name Latin Quarter goes back to the Middle Ages, when this was the haunt of students and their teachers. The university started as a school attached to the cathedral. Teaching took place outdoors, under the arcades of the cathedral cloisters. In the12th century, many people moved to the Left Bank, and soon after, colleges were founded, including the Sorbonne, which began in 1257.
So, why is it called the Latin Quarter? Well, it comes from the fact that Latin was spoken here, not only in the universities and colleges which taught in Latin until the 1700s, but also in the streets. In the early days, students flocked here from all over the world and they communicated in Latin here, in the area where they lived and studied.
The Latin Quarter is still the haunt of students. But many others come to stroll through its tiny streets, eat in its restaurants, people-watch and enjoy the cinemas and jazz clubs.
Saint-Michel
The Saint-Michel fountain is a popular meeting place amongst everyone in this area of Paris. Stretching out in front of the fountain is one of the boulevards constructed by Haussmann in the 1860s as part of Napoleon III's project to rebuild Paris. This is the boulevard Saint-Michel. The fountain with Saint Michael killing the dragon was designed to give a beautiful finish to the boulevard.
Tiny streets of the Latin Quarter (Rue de la Harpe/Rue de la Huchette/Rue Xavier Privas)
Across the street and around the corner, you'll find a taste of the old Latin Quarter. This area still has its narrow medieval streets, identifiable by the gutter running down the middle of the street. Once filled with medieval students and teachers, craftsmen, merchants, and knights of the royal guard, these streets are as bustling as ever. They are now home to many picturesque multi-ethnic restaurants.
Latin Quarter ApartmentsIt's difficult to enjoy your morning coffee and a vintage book from the Latin Quarter in a boring hotel room. For an authentic Latin Quarter experience, make sure you book a furnished apartment in the Latin Quarter or a Latin Quarter vacation rental for your next trip.
Take a look at this furnished studio apartment located in the 6th arrondissement of Paris ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/22 ), which is also equipped with a washing machine and of course a fully equipped kitchen. With nice views and a lot of light, this apartment is a perfect place to call home during your time in Paris, located just off of Boulevard Saint-Michel.
Finally we might suggest this furnished 2-bedroom, 1 and half bathroom Paris apartment ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/1759 ), which is situated on the 5th floor of a 7-story elevator building. One bedroom is furnished with a double bed and one with a single bed. The living room is furnished with a double sized sofa bed for extra sleeping accommodations. The rental also includes a dining area, as well as a balcony, perfect for a satisfying stay in the Latin Quarter of Paris.
Remember that New York Habitat offers hundreds of apartments for rent in Paris, including furnished apartments ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished ) and vacation rentals ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/vacation ).
Also, be sure to check out our blog, if you want to learn more about Latin Quarter : http://www.nyhabitat.com/blog/2011/09/22/paris-neighborhood-video-tour-latin-quarter-part-1/
We have covered a lot of ground today in the Latin Quarter here in Paris. If we missed any of your favorite spots, be sure to share them in the comments section below.
We hope to see you soon in the Latin Quarter. As they say in Latin, bonum cursum, or in French, bon voyage!

HIDDEN Symbol Meanings You Didn't Know

From that famous bumper sticker to hashtags on Instagram, here are the histories behind some of the most famous, everyday icons!
Subscribe to Talltanic http://goo.gl/wgfvrr
# 10 Coexist
The bumper sticker on the back of your Subaru was initially supposed to promote understanding and peace between different cultures, but it has a pretty choppy history. It was initially designed by Piotr Mlodozeniec for an art show in a contemporary art museum in Jerusalem, at that point it only had an oversized Crescent moon for the C, aStar of David for the X and a Latin Cross for the T. This image would be co-opted by two different clothing companies and even by U2. There would be some messy lawsuits and lots of confusion about who owned the image, before we landed at the finale version of Coexist that you see so commonly as a bumper sticker.
# 9 Power
This is pretty much the universal symbol for turning something on or off. It originally comes from the early days of computers when everything was mostly coded in 0’s and 1’s. 0 meant “off” and 1 meant “on”. This was quickly adopted as a symbol as it transcends language. Now, you can still see a 0 and 1 denote what power state something is in. You might also see the broken 0 with a 1 in it which means “standby power state” or works as a toggle between off and on.
# 8 Barber’s Pole
The iconic symbol used to denote a barbershop is the red and white striped pole that is usually right outside. These stripes actually have a pretty surprising origin. The red stripes symbolized blood and the white stripes symbolized bandages. This is because Barbers used to do minor surgery as well as give haircuts. They would let blood or use leeches to “clean” ill patients’ blood.
# 7 InfiniteSymbol
The infinity symbol looks like an overturned 8 and it’s pretty obvious to see that it also looks like a stroke with no beginning or end. It actually has roots in Roman numerals, the number for 1,000 which looks like two letter C’s facing each other: CƆ. While that only stood for 1,000, it was also used to say “a lot”.
# 6 Ichthys
This symbol is colloquially known as the “Jesus Fish” and you’ve probably seen a version of this symbol on the back of a car while you were driving in traffic. Story goes that when Christians were a persecuted religious group in the Biblical era, a Christian would draw the first half of the symbol in the sand. If someone else was a christian too, they’d draw the other line. The word Ichthys itself is an acronym for the greek words Iēsous Christos, Theou Yios, Sōtēr, which translates to “Jesus Christ, Son of God, Savior”. Now, the Ichthys is used commonly in Christian culture.
# 5 Pause
You’re probably familiar with this symbol, the universal symbol for a temporary stop. Some think that it looks like a stop sign with the middle carved out of it. However, the most likely origin is that it came from a classical music origin: the caesura. In musical notation the caesura indicates a “pause”.
# 4 $ Sign
There are a few theories about the origin of the dollar sign but many believe that it is from the old Spanish version of handwritten shorthand for “peso” which is “ps”. Eventually the P and S would be be written on top of each other and then that would become just an S with a line through it, the modern $ sign.
# 3 @ Sign
There are a couple different theories about where the “@ sign” originated. Many believe that it came from scribes in the 1500’s but the exact origin could be from the Latin word for “toward” which is ad. The swirl around the @ could be from the “d”. Others believe that it came from the French for at which is à, an a with a mark above it. For efficiency, scribes might have just turned this letter into the @ sign so they wouldn’t have to pick up the pen. After that, the @ was used by merchants to denote price. It slowly evolved into what we use it for today, which is mainly for internet handles and email addresses.
# 2 USB Symbol
The icon on a USB was drawn to resemble Neptune’s trident. Instead of three prongs at the end of the spear there are three shapes. Each of the different shapes are meant to represent all the different kinds of peripheral devices that could be plugged into the standard USB port.
# 1 AppleCommand Key
If you’re currently using or have ever used an Apple computer, you are probably familiar with the strange button on the keyboard known as the Command key. However, you may not be familiar with where this clover symbol was borrowed from. It is a SwedishRoad sign that indicates cultural locations and places of interest, AKA a Tourist Attraction.

Hello and welcome for another video tour of a fantastic Paris neighborhood by New YorkHabitat ( http://www.nyhabitat.com ). In today's video tour we're going to explore one of the liveliest and most popular areas of Paris, the Latin Quarter.
Also, feel free to watch other great video tours of Paris neighborhoods ( http://www.youtube.com/user/NewYorkHabitat?feature=mhee#p/c/D57FBD5017C49B3B ), such as Oberkampf ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGp3-qXWI6w ) or L'Ile Saint-Louis ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWpOtKAjgX0 ).
There is so much to see in this area, this will be the 1st episode of a three-part series dedicated to the Latin Quarter.
Located on the Left Bank of the Seine River in Paris, where the Roman city of Lutetia once stood, the Latin Quarter stretches from the river to the top of MountSt. Genevieve, a hill named for the city's patron saint.
History
The name Latin Quarter goes back to the Middle Ages, when this was the haunt of students and their teachers. The university started as a school attached to the cathedral. Teaching took place outdoors, under the arcades of the cathedral cloisters. In the12th century, many people moved to the Left Bank, and soon after, colleges were founded, including the Sorbonne, which began in 1257.
So, why is it called the Latin Quarter? Well, it comes from the fact that Latin was spoken here, not only in the universities and colleges which taught in Latin until the 1700s, but also in the streets. In the early days, students flocked here from all over the world and they communicated in Latin here, in the area where they lived and studied.
The Latin Quarter is still the haunt of students. But many others come to stroll through its tiny streets, eat in its restaurants, people-watch and enjoy the cinemas and jazz clubs.
Saint-Michel
The Saint-Michel fountain is a popular meeting place amongst everyone in this area of Paris. Stretching out in front of the fountain is one of the boulevards constructed by Haussmann in the 1860s as part of Napoleon III's project to rebuild Paris. This is the boulevard Saint-Michel. The fountain with Saint Michael killing the dragon was designed to give a beautiful finish to the boulevard.
Tiny streets of the Latin Quarter (Rue de la Harpe/Rue de la Huchette/Rue Xavier Privas)
Across the street and around the corner, you'll find a taste of the old Latin Quarter. This area still has its narrow medieval streets, identifiable by the gutter running down the middle of the street. Once filled with medieval students and teachers, craftsmen, merchants, and knights of the royal guard, these streets are as bustling as ever. They are now home to many picturesque multi-ethnic restaurants.
Latin Quarter ApartmentsIt's difficult to enjoy your morning coffee and a vintage book from the Latin Quarter in a boring hotel room. For an authentic Latin Quarter experience, make sure you book a furnished apartment in the Latin Quarter or a Latin Quarter vacation rental for your next trip.
Take a look at this furnished studio apartment located in the 6th arrondissement of Paris ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/22 ), which is also equipped with a washing machine and of course a fully equipped kitchen. With nice views and a lot of light, this apartment is a perfect place to call home during your time in Paris, located just off of Boulevard Saint-Michel.
Finally we might suggest this furnished 2-bedroom, 1 and half bathroom Paris apartment ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/1759 ), which is situated on the 5th floor of a 7-story elevator building. One bedroom is furnished with a double bed and one with a single bed. The living room is furnished with a double sized sofa bed for extra sleeping accommodations. The rental also includes a dining area, as well as a balcony, perfect for a satisfying stay in the Latin Quarter of Paris.
Remember that New York Habitat offers hundreds of apartments for rent in Paris, including furnished apartments ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished ) and vacation rentals ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/vacation ).

The name Latin Quarter goes back to the Middle Ages, when this was the haunt of students and their teachers. The university started as a school attached to the cathedral. Teaching took place outdoors, under the arcades of the cathedral cloisters. In the12th century, many people moved to the Left Bank, and soon after, colleges were founded, including the Sorbonne, which began in 1257.
So, why is it called the Latin Quarter? Well, it comes from the fact that Latin was spoken here, not only in the universities and colleges which taught in Latin until the 1700s, but also in the streets. In the early days, students flocked here from all over the world and they communicated in Latin here, in the area where they lived and studied.
The Latin Quarter is still the haunt of students. But many others come to stroll through its tiny streets, eat in its restaurants, people-watch and enjoy the cinemas and jazz clubs.
Saint-Michel
The Saint-Michel fountain is a popular meeting place amongst everyone in this area of Paris. Stretching out in front of the fountain is one of the boulevards constructed by Haussmann in the 1860s as part of Napoleon III's project to rebuild Paris. This is the boulevard Saint-Michel. The fountain with Saint Michael killing the dragon was designed to give a beautiful finish to the boulevard.
Tiny streets of the Latin Quarter (Rue de la Harpe/Rue de la Huchette/Rue Xavier Privas)
Across the street and around the corner, you'll find a taste of the old Latin Quarter. This area still has its narrow medieval streets, identifiable by the gutter running down the middle of the street. Once filled with medieval students and teachers, craftsmen, merchants, and knights of the royal guard, these streets are as bustling as ever. They are now home to many picturesque multi-ethnic restaurants.
Latin Quarter ApartmentsIt's difficult to enjoy your morning coffee and a vintage book from the Latin Quarter in a boring hotel room. For an authentic Latin Quarter experience, make sure you book a furnished apartment in the Latin Quarter or a Latin Quarter vacation rental for your next trip.
Take a look at this furnished studio apartment located in the 6th arrondissement of Paris ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/22 ), which is also equipped with a washing machine and of course a fully equipped kitchen. With nice views and a lot of light, this apartment is a perfect place to call home during your time in Paris, located just off of Boulevard Saint-Michel.
Finally we might suggest this furnished 2-bedroom, 1 and half bathroom Paris apartment ( http://www.nyhabitat.com/paris-apartment/furnished/1759 ), which is situated on the 5th floor of a 7-story elevator building. One bedroom is furnished with a double bed and one with a single bed. The living room is furnished with a double sized sofa bed for extra sleeping accommodations. The rental also includes a dining area, as well as a balcony, perfect for a satisfying stay in the Latin Quarter of Paris.

Choosing a holiday apartment rental can help you save a lot of money. You get more space, and bang for your buck and deeper discounts when you stay for a longer amount of time.
Having a kitchen in your apartment is a great way to save money on meals.
We find that eating out is one of the most expensive parts of travel.
so if you can cook yourself a nice romantic dinner in with a bottle of fine wine from the Carfourre, you're going to save a lot of money
When in Paris, make sure to take advantage of free tours, they're all over the place and it's a great way to learn about the history of Paris.
Many museums in Paris offer free days, once a month, like the Museé D'Orsay here.
On the first Sunday of every month, you can get in for free.
Be sure to check and see when museums have discounts on certain days of the week where you can get in for the last couple of hours for a fraction of the price.
When you're in Paris be sure to take advantage of the free churches like Notre Dame.
They're absolutely beautiful inside and they're free!
I'm on the steps of Sacre Couer in Mont Martre, and it's the best view of Paris, save for the Eiffel Tower or Monteparnasse, but this view is free.
Choosing the right disctrict to stay in can save you a lot of money.
This studio in Montmartre starts at 49 Euro a night.
So another great budget tip in Paris is head down to your local Fanprix or Carfourre, grab yourself some meats, cheeses and baguettes, and head somewhere to have yourself a great picnic.
When you do decide to eat out in Paris, make sure to hit the Latin Quarter, you can get a 3 course meal for under €20.
Here's a tip to help you save money, whenever you see the emblem of Paris on a museum, it means it's free.
Here's a great site in Paris that you can see for free!
Instead of taking taxis or tourist busses, take the metro instead.
Paris has an extensive system and it stops at all the major sites.
There is so much that you can do for free in Paris, be it walking through the cemeteries of Monteparnasse and Pere la Chaise to visit the famous residents,
to taking advantage of watching the talented musicians and artists performing in the streets.
You don't need to go inside to witness beautiful art in Paris. The city itself is a living work of art.

THE NEW ATLANTIS - FULL AudioBook by Sir Francis Bacon

THE NEW ATLANTIS - FULL AudioBook by Sir Francis BaconNew Atlantis is a utopian novel by Sir Francis Bacon, published in Latin (as Nova Atlantis) in 1624 and in English in 1627. In this work, Bacon portrayed a vision of the future of human discovery and knowledge, expressing his aspirations and ideals for humankind. The novel depicts the creation of a utopian land where "generosity and enlightenment, dignity and splendour, piety and public spirit" are the commonly held qualities of the inhabitants of the mythical Bensalem. The plan and organization of his ideal college, Salomon's House (or Solomon's House), envisioned the modern research university in both applied and pure sciences. (summary adapted from wikipedia.org)

Webinar: EMV for Merchants and Acquirers -- U.S. Migration Considerations

Date: Thursday, Oct. 6, 2011, 1pm ET/10am PT
Globally, the payments industry is migrating from magnetic stripe bank cards and infrastructure to EMV chip cards and infrastructure to improve the security of bank card transactions. EMV is an open-standard set of specifications for smart card payments and acceptance devices. Eighty countries globally are in various stages of EMV chip migration, including Canada and countries in Europe, Latin America and Asia. In August 2011, Visa announced plans to accelerate chip migration and adoption of mobile payments in the United States, through retailer incentives, processing infrastructure acceptance requirements and counterfeit card liability shift. This announcement is expected to accelerate the move to EMV and mobile contactless payments.

UTEMIS is a B2B platform geared to building trust by stressing and decentralizing merchant
reputation, transaction assurance and trading efficiency. It is focused in Latin America and it is
integral with the UTEMIS token, this being essential to protect merchants from the vagaries
and arbitrariness of local governmental interventions. In this, UTEMIS follows the proven
business model of the leading Chinese e-commerce giants with a strong emphasis on
reputation. For the reason given, the UTEMIS cryptocurrency is a necessary complement with
the potential of transforming the entire Latin American region into a single economic space.
UTEMIS ICO proceeds will be invested in speeding up the development of the technological
platform and in hiring a massive salesforce to spark growth in Mexico, Brazil and Colombia

In which John Green teaches you about the Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie, doing business as the VOC, also known as the Dutch East India Company.

Well, they did also use some traditional methods like violently enforced monopolies, unfair trade agreements, and plain old warfare. You'll learn how the Dutch invented stuff like joint stock corporations, maritime insurance, and futures trading. Basically, how the Dutch East India Company crashed the US economy in 2008.

Paris, France - Video Tour of the Latin Quarter (Part 1)

Hello and welcome for another video tour of a fantastic Paris neighborhood by New YorkHabitat ( http://www.nyhabitat.com ). In today's video tour we're going to explore one of the liveliest and most popular areas of Paris, the Latin Quarter.
Also, feel free to watch other great video tours of Paris neighborhoods ( http://www.youtube.com/user/NewYorkHabitat?feature=mhee#p/c/D57FBD5017C49B3B ), such as Oberkampf ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGp3-qXWI6w ) or L'Ile Saint-Louis ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AWpOtKAjgX0 ).
There is so much to see in this area, this will be the 1st episode of a three-part series dedicated to the Latin Quarter.
Located on the Left Bank of the Seine River in Paris, where the Roman city of Lutetia once stood, the Latin Quarter stretches from the river to the top of MountSt. Genevieve, a hill named for the city's patron saint.
History
The name Latin Quarter goes back to the Middle Ages, when this was the haunt of students and their teachers. The university started as a school attached to the cathedral. Teaching took place outdoors, under the arcades of the cathedral cloisters. In the12th century, many people moved to the Left Bank, and soon after, colleges were founded, including the Sorbonne, which began in 1257.
So, why is it called the Latin Quarter? Well, it comes from the fact that Latin was spoken here, not only in the universities and colleges which taught in Latin until the 1700s, but also in the streets. In the early days, students flocked here from all over the world and they communicated in Latin here, in the area where they lived and studied.
The Latin Quarter is still the haunt of students. But many others come to stroll through its tiny streets, eat in its restaurants, people-watch and enjoy the cinemas and jazz clubs.
Saint-Michel
The Saint-Michel fountain is a popular meeting place amongst everyone in this area of Paris. Stretching out in front of the fountain is one of the boulevards constructed by Haussmann in the 1860s as part of Napoleon III's project to rebuild Paris. This is the boulevard Saint-Michel. The fountain with Saint Michael killing the dragon was designed to give a beautiful finish to the boulevard.
Tiny streets of the Latin Quarter (Rue de la Harpe/Rue de la Huchette/Rue Xavier Privas)
Across the street and around the corner, you'll find a taste of the old Latin Quarter. This area still has its narrow medieval streets, identifiable by the gutter running down the middle of the street. Once filled with medieval students and teachers, craftsmen, merchants, and knights of the royal guard, these streets are as bustling as ever. They are now home to many picturesque multi-ethnic restaurants.
Latin Quarter ApartmentsIt's difficult to enjoy your morning coffee and a vintage book from the Latin Quarter in a boring hotel room. For an authentic Latin Quarter experience, make sure you book a furnished apartment in the Latin Quarter or a Latin Quarter vacation rental for your next trip.
